Józef Tischnerʼs Ethics of Values in Relation to Freedom

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to provide an introduction into the ethics of val-ues developed by Józef Tischner. In his analyses, the philosopher from Cracow departs from the ethics of norms and presents the reality of choices as a way of realizing values. In the encounter with the Other, a drama takes place – one that reveals the truth about the human condition. An indispensable element of this drama is freedom, which, although it may be the cause of mistakes, is, above all, a way of the existence of good and a condition of personal growth.
